is making giant steps towards self-sufficiency or energy independence, there are two legs of that. the first leg is increase in the oil production, and the second one is decrease in the oil consumption at home. mainly as a result of the efficiency standards, cafe standards. when we look at the future, we think about 50% of the success story is because of the oil production and 50% is decline in the oil consumption as a result of the cafe standards. >> we were talking about this quite a bit when this study first came out. every headline you saw talked about the u.s. being on top, and on top of russia and saudi arabia. but how much of this also has to do with the decline in production that you may be forecasting for those two countries, and what does that mean for the overall dploeull g supply picture and what does it mean for prices? >> saudi arabia, we still increase production. and saudi arabia we still remain the largest oil exporter of the world. u.s. will be the top producer, but u.s. will use a lot of oil at home and saudi arabia will produce less than united states but we wil

in my notes here that you think that companies that are not putting 80% or more of their competitive energy into this third platform may become obsolete. >> oh, yeah, there's no question. because if you think about what's happening and the cloud is probably a good example. amazon is coming in right now with amazon web services and they are going in to the markets of companies like hp and ibm and microsoft, sap oracle, 60% to 80% margins and they are coming in with a 20% margin saying we're going to come in and use cloud technology, bring prices down for customers, reach much larger volumes and really almost break the business model of these traditional players. >> who are the cutting edge companies? you mentioned oracle certainly but who are some of the cutting edge companies that you see out there right now who really have a leg up in expenditures on a high-percentage basis to the third platform? >> well, there's no question. i talked about ibm and hp and those guys as if they're just the old school. these companies are also watching major efforts to be third platform leaders. so certainly

government suspension is over the energy giant's role in the 2010 deepwater horizon oil spill. you can see bp shares this morning still adding almost 0.2%. but underperforming the market. for more, we're joined by kneel atkins atkinson. this move seems pretty extraordinary. in your view, is it unusual for the u.s. government to respond this this aggressively in this case or do they have a basis for doing so? >> i think the u.s. government will never pass up an opportunity to basically kick bp when it can because bp has become the boogeyman of the last 2 1/2 years. ever since the original explosion, i think we've all been expecting that bp would find itself in great difficulty when it came to getting further exploration contracts in the gulf of mexico and indeed elsewhere in the u.s. >> it certainly wouldn't be surprising that they have a hard time getting the contracts even if they had come out the week or the month that this happened and said you're now sus pinneded until we sort this all out. what strikes me strange is the timing. we're two plus years after this event. why no
